Three infants with congenital herpes simplex virus infection were examined and treated. One demonstrated findings of individual vesicles on an erythematous base; another had pustules. The children were treated with vidarabine intravenously. Two of the three survived. The literature suggests a potential increase in the occurrence of this infection in neonates. Since the dermatologist is often asked to aid in the diagnosis of this entity and early recognition is vital, it is important to be familiar with the possible causes of vesicopustular lesions, as well as the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, and current forms of treatment of congenital herpes simplex virus infections.
Multilocular renal cysts are benign lesions with an unknown histogenesis. We report 3 children and summarize information currently known about these lesions. Capsular veins were seen in two patients during the early phases of intravenous urography. Intravenous urography with sonography and arteriography may suggest the diagnosis prior to surgery.
Nonidentical twins with ectopic ureteroceles, and duplication of the urinary collecting system in two more members of the same family are described. This incidence may indicate that inborn anomalies of the urinary tract may have a genetic background.
